Seems as though i've lived my life on the bad side of the moon

To stir your dregs, and sittin' still, without a rustic spoon

Now come on people, live with me, where the light has never shone

And the harlots flock like hummingbirds, speakin' in a foreign tongue



This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life



It seems as though i've lived my life on the bad side of the moon

To stir your dregs, and sittin' still, without a rustic spoon

Now come on people, live with me, where the light has never shone

And the harlots flock like hummingbirds, speakin' in a foreign tongue

I'm a light world away, from the people who make me stay

Sittin' on the bad side of the moon



This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life



There ain't no need for watchdogs here, to justify our ways

We lived our lives in manacles, the main cause of our stay

And exiled here from other worlds, my sentence comes to soon

Why should i be made to pay on the bad side of the moon

I'm a light world away, from the people who make me stay

Sittin' on the bad side of the moon



This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life
